how will the travel time/back to back to backs for the nba affect betting?

magic away yesterday
magic home today vs. rockets

thunder home yesterday
away today

lakers home yesterday
away today not as far a trip as the first 2


bulls away yesterday
bulls away today again not as far as a trip


not saying today.. but over the course of the season i think the amount of quick turn arounds will defintely make the play worses and gonna see alot of tired legs

BET ACCORDING

I think you will have a lot of tired players due to the lack of conditioning with no training camp.

[Mr KLC]

It affects two types of teams. If the team is older, or has a weak 2nd unit, they are going to have trouble this year. That's why I like teams like the Rockets. They don't have an overwhelming team, but they are young and deep.

[ebbearsfb1]

i think teams that run and gun will also be effected poorly...

and like you said old teams..

how many times will kobe be playing in the 3rd game of the back to back to back?

[doublej95]

look for Kobe to mail it in this year if the lakers get off to a bad start. he is pissed about the Odom trade and now the divorce.

[ebbearsfb1]

i think

kings ml tonight

and rockets might be worth a look

[dredmahawkus]

do the back to backs effect shooting accuracy or lack of playing defense?

you think in back to backs will you see more overs or unders?

when players are tired the first thing to go is the legs.

[DoubleRedDragon]

I don't think you should underestimate players' conditioning. They weren't fighting for more money because they wanted rest.

However I think you should take into account the ability to work together as a team and the coaching of the players when they are a bit more tired. There's going to be more improvising than usual.

Yep, probably higher scoring games.

[Mr KLC]

Another team I'm watching, at least at the start of the season, is the Timberwolves. They might come in under the radar, and cover a few games, with Adelman running the helm now. Very young team with a couple of good signings with Rubio and Barea.

Houston, Mil, Phx, and Chi look good today.... might throw a lil down on dog spreads and ML faves.
